The daughter of the first wife is reborn and marries a rich family again
Chapter 37 Choice
There were members of the Shen family inside the house and servants of the Shen mansion outside. Everyone packed their luggage privately, fearing that if something happened to the Shen family, innocent people would be implicated.
Yu Caiwei raised the corners of her mouth and revealed a faint smile, and the fish was about to take the bait.
This time, she must catch the traitor in the Shen family.
"Xiao Cheng is also impartial. If he intentionally favors the Shen family, that would be a heinous crime punishable by the execution of all nine generations of the family." Yu Caiwei's voice rang out. She didn't want to speak for Xiao Cheng. It would be okay to scold someone like him.
But her uncle Shen Fei is no pushover. If he is allowed to continue scolding her, he will say even more unpleasant words than this.
"Yes, the most important thing right now is what to do. When family members are taken away, the Shen family cannot be left without a leader."
Liu Jingyun took the handkerchief in her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes, looking like she was wholeheartedly devoted to the Shen family.
If others saw this, they would definitely praise her, but Yu Caiwei knew that when it came to interests, she would not miss any opportunity to stand at the top of the Shen family.
"Throughout the ages, the eldest son has always inherited the family. In my opinion, it would be better to let my uncle take over the Shen family first."
Yu Caiwei spoke slowly, her uncle was not as simple as he seemed.
Some people may seem ordinary on the surface, but they are actually rotten inside.
"Caiwei, you are obviously biased towards your uncle."
Shen Fei glanced at her with dissatisfaction on his face. He had held her in his arms when she was a child, so why was his niece leaning her elbow towards others?
"Second uncle, right now the Shen family needs help to solve the problem. The eldest uncle is just temporarily handling the Shen family's affairs. When grandpa comes back, it will still be grandpa who will decide who inherits the Shen family."
Yu Caiwei stood up and bowed. Now that things had come to this, if Shen Fei continued to argue, it would seem that he was being unreasonable.
Liu Jingyun looked at Shen Fei proudly. In the end, the Shen family still needed their eldest wife.
She caught everyone's looks out of the corner of her eyes. The Shen family was a merchant family, and there were countless people outside watching them, even people in the court, who all wanted to swallow up the Shen family.
From what she saw, the reason her grandfather had not chosen an heir was because of this reason. The Shen brothers were not united in their hearts and now had ulterior motives.
"Caiwei, your grandfather is old, and I have prepared some things. Do you think it would be possible to ask Prince Xiao to send the things in for your sake?"
Shen Long spoke in a calm tone. He was not proud of being in charge of the Shen family. Instead, he focused on other things. From this, Yu Caiwei knew that this uncle was shrewd and scheming.
"Yes, I have prepared some as well. Ask Prince Xiao to help you and bring the things in."
Not willing to be outdone, Shen Fei immediately responded that whoever pleases the old man at this critical juncture could be the future heir of the Shen family.
Her second uncle has always been a straightforward person who says whatever he thinks, but this makes it too easy for others to find fault with him.
Yu Caiwei agreed immediately. There were a lot of things stuffed in the carriage. It didn't look like a prison visit but rather a move.
"Miss, there are so many things, can the prince let us take them in?" Baocui was squeezed so hard that she could hardly sit down. She moved uneasily and finally found a comfortable position to sit inside.
"Just pick out some clothes and send them in. Xiao Cheng won't do anything to grandpa."
My grandfather is old now, so torture is of no use.
Outside the government office, the carriage stopped and the wind blew up the fallen leaves on the ground. Yu Caiwei jumped off the carriage, staring deeply at the gate in front of her.
She looked up and saw the plaque above, then raised her hand to untie the ropes of her shawl.
The officers and soldiers immediately went in to report, and soon a man came out.
Yu Caiwei had seen him before and knew that he was someone close to Xiao Cheng, so she followed him with confidence.
"Please let Miss Yu in alone."
Baocui was left outside the door, and the two of them stood on both sides, looking at each other, disliking each other.
"How's my grandfather?"
When Yu Caiwei entered, she saw Xiao Cheng sitting on a stool sipping tea. He seemed relaxed and at ease.
"That's fine. Don't worry. I won't attack a powerless person."
Only after hearing this did she feel relieved. She came here first to send some things to her grandfather, and second to agree to the request of the Shen family to plead for mercy.
She wants the traitor in the Shen family to be exposed, and she also wants the Shen family to be safe and sound. If she wants to have both, she must have the help of the person in front of her.
"Sit down, make yourself at home."
When Xiao Cheng's joking voice came, Yu Caiwei's expression became a little solemn.
"I'm here to plead for the Shen family. Please, Prince, for all the hard work the Shen family has put in for the country and the people over the years, please show some mercy."
Yu Caiwei ignored his frivolity. For some reason, she always felt that Xiao Cheng in this life was a little different.
He seemed not as ruthless or cold as he was in his previous life.
"If Miss Yu wants to beg for mercy, it's useless to just talk."
Xiao Cheng raised his legs and put them on the stool in front of her, his face was very calm, and it was obvious that he was not to be trifled with.
"What is the prince's plan?"
Yu Caiwei frowned. She only asked Zi Ju to cooperate in the acting that day but didn't tell him what role he was supposed to play specifically.
He was the one who sang the play, but she was also deeply involved in it.
"I want all the Shen family's property, and I want to use it in exchange for Mr. Shen's safe return."
All the family property?
"Xiao Cheng, what do you want to do? That's not what you told me that day." Yu Caiwei lowered her voice. She looked up, fearing that there might be eavesdroppers on the other side of the wall.
Xiao Cheng agreed to the marriage proposal simply because he was attracted by his mother's pretense and he was short of money.
"Ms. Yu, these are the conditions I offer to the Shen family. They may not be unwilling to accept them." Xiao Cheng smiled and played with the jade pendant around his waist.
He just sat there, looking at her with deep eyes, and Yu Caiwei's heart was pounding.
"Xiao Cheng, are you using me to get the Shen family's assets?"
Yu Caiwei was silent for a few seconds and then raised her voice. The heavy events of her previous life were still vivid in her mind. She seemed to have a short memory and chose to believe him.
"Miss Yu, Mr. Shen is old and there are too many uncertainties deep in prison. I will give the Shen family two days. I want to see all of the Shen family's assets."
Yu Caiwei clenched her hands into fists at her sides. Xiao Cheng was really scheming.
She thought Xiao Cheng would help the Shen family, but he was ruining the Shen family's future in advance.
If he took away all the Shen family's property, the Shen family would have no choice but to swallow it.
This move is really brilliant!
Yu Caiwei's face darkened. "Xiao Cheng, you lied to me! I didn't expect you to use me like this! You needed money, so you used this method to get the Shen family's money."
The room fell into silence. Xiao Cheng did not say anything. He just looked at the person in front of him quietly.
She is smarter than in her previous life, but still too stupid and foolish.
